• A farmer requires the construction of a water tank of dimension 2m x 2m. Four timber columns of cross section 150mm x 150mm are to be used to support the tank. The timber in question has an allowable compression of 5N/mm2 and a modulus of elasticity of 2500N/mm2. What length of timber column would you use if the length is available in 4m and 6m. (Weight of tank =30kN and density of water =1000kg/m3
